Safe and Loving Pet Care

I’ve been boarding and caring for dogs for the past 5 years, and it’s something I truly enjoy. As a proud Samoyed owner, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your pet like family. In addition to my current dog, I’ve had three other dogs throughout my life, giving me experience with different breeds, personalities, and care needs. Every dog is unique, so I always take the time to learn their routine and make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while they’re with me. I make it a priority to ensure every dog gets plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and attention throughout the day. I’m also very observant and always keep an eye out for any changes in behavior, appetite, energy level, or anything else that could indicate they need extra care or attention. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free environment so you can have peace of mind knowing your dog is in loving and capable hands.

Elena was an exceptional rover who provided updates throughout the stay along with pictures. She seemed to show excellent care and attention for miley. Miley even had another cute furball friend of Elenas who kept her company during the stay. Highly recommend to anyone in need of a sitter!

This was my first time using Rover. I used Elena because of her profile and all the cute dogs she took care of. Elena went above and beyond with my little one. She kept me updated with pictures and text messages let me know that I have nothing to worry about. The next time I’m out of town I will definitely use her.

Elena has been the best dog sitter for my dogs, I have two shih tzus, and she has always taken excellent care of them, I've had a great experience with her, and my dogs never get anxious when I leave them with her, she's definitely my go-to dog sitter now :)

Schedule

Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a Samoyed of my own, so my days include walks, playtime, feeding, grooming, and making sure she gets plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and attention. I also work from home part of the week, which allows me to provide consistent care, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of companionship throughout the day. I’m fortunate to have a dog park just a 3-minute walk from my apartment, as well as a large field where I regularly take my dog and the dogs I care for to play fetch, run, and enjoy outdoor time. I love creating a safe, fun, and comfortable environment where every dog feels happy and well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets by creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment that feels like home. In my own home, I maintain a consistent routine with regular walks, exercise, playtime, feeding schedules, grooming, and plenty of attention. I have a Samoyed of my own and have cared for dogs for over five years, so I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and recognizing each pet’s individual needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow the owner’s instructions closely to keep their routine as familiar and stress-free as possible. I pay attention to their habits, behavior, energy levels, and any changes that may indicate they need extra care. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping pets active, happy, and mentally stimulated. Depending on each pet’s personality and energy level, I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch, having outdoor playtime at the dog park or field near my home, practicing basic commands, and providing plenty of attention and affection. I also enjoy giving pets enrichment activities like interactive play, puzzle toys, and supervised exploration. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, engaged, and loved while they’re away from their family.

Before caring for a pet, I like to know their routine, personality, and any special needs they may have. Important details include their feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, allergies, fears, favorite activities, and how they interact with other dogs and people. I also like to know their comfort level with new environments, any behavioral cues I should be aware of, and what helps them feel safe and relaxed. Every pet is different, so my goal is to follow their normal routine as closely as possible and provide care that makes them feel comfortable, happy, and loved while they’re away from home.
